Texas/Arkansas Road Trip


     I left South Padre Island on Thursday March 31. I traveled in the van across Texas. That night I slept in Tyler, Texas. It is in northeast Texas. The drive was very pretty.  The landscape changed from cactus , yucca plants and shrubby mesquite trees, to taller trees, pine trees and a little roll to the land.
     The wildflowers blooming were various colors---dark pink, light pink, yellow, orange and blue.  The blue ones were Blue Bonnets, the Texas State flower.
     These pictures were taken in Arkansas.  The roads became more curvy and with hills.
   We drove to Little Rock , Arkansas, then went north on Highway 65 toward Branson.






There were many sawmills that we drove by. This picture is of a truck load of logs going to a sawmill.
